It will be me, no personal touch there. The work and effort that I put into the build will be my personal touch and gift to my bro :)

These aren’t fully quartz, it’s a kinetic :)

Not a fan of quartz also but those two will stay as is.

I saw a build with a mechanical Swiss movement. For the next case I’ll try to use a mechanical.

Don’t need to apologize, wasn’t offended. That cross my mind when I bought them :)

Do you want a kinetic for your build? Instead of the sf240? :D
